The orchestra will welcome Roger Nelson as guest conductor in a program of Debussy, Respighi and will feature Partington in Rodrigo’s “Concierto de Aranjuez” and Leo Brouwer’s “From Yesterday to Penny Lane, A Beatle’s Concerto.”

Partington, one of the most engaging of the new generation of concert players, was praised by Classical Guitar Magazine for his “lyricism, intensity and clear technical command.”

Partington has appeared throughout the U.S., U.K., Canada, Russia and Scandinavia in solo recital, with orchestra and in chamber ensembles. His North American appearances include the first solo guitar recital in Seattle’s Benaroya Hall.
